Earlier this year, on a HOT 42 degree day, my sister and her husband tied the knot and got married! Despite the heat, the day provided many great memories, all of which were caught on video. Well they just received the DVD of the day's proceedings. It was extremely well put together with a number of editing tricks that really caught our eyes and made the whole viewing experience more enjoyable. How cool would it be to be able to develop our own DVD's of those 'special' days. Let me then introduce the Creative USB Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor!

The Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor provides both hardware and software required for editing and recording of video files. Providing a simplistic approach seems to be a real focus of this USB device. Set up is easy being USB driven. Simply plug and play! Internal hardware acceleration ensures your computer is not put under duress, so you can take advantage of the benefits even though you may not have a technological beast under the bonnet! As far as connections goes... this puppy has it all! Ranging from SPDIF to S-Video to standard composite. It also double as a USB hub meaning you don't need to go down to the back of your computer to plug in devices.

Just so you get the most for your money, the Audigy 2 ZS Video Editor doubles as a 24-bit, THX certified portable sound card! Enjoy your music and movies the way they were meant to be listened to in 5.1 or 7.1 DTS-ES sound. And to add the icing on the cake, you have a remote control to help you be that little bit more lazy...ahh I meant... to make things more convenient for you. This is a great all round package; and being made by Creative, you can be guaranteed it's of very 'sound' quality!
